Five Perfect Days in Merimbula: A Luxe Coastal Itinerary
How to Spend a Groovy 5-Days at The Treehouse
Day 1: Drift In, Settle Down & Sunset Magic
Roll On In – Welcome to your dreamy treetop hideaway, where time slows, the breeze hums through the leaves, and life feels a little more golden. Drop your bags, take a deep breath, and let the sink in.
Stock Up Like a Local – Swing by Goodall’s Butcher for the best cuts, grab your fruit and deli treats from Pambula, and load up on fresh-baked Wild Rye bread. For drinks, check out Liquor Legends – they’ve got the good stuff.
Sunset Sips & Dinner at Valentina – Toast to your arrival with cocktails and oysters as the sky melts into pastels. The vibe is effortless, the seafood is divine, and the view? Absolute magic. (Book ahead, it’s a must!)
Day 2: Saltwater Therapy & Vintage Strolling
Coastal Wake-Up Call – Swing by Fleetwood Café for your caffeine fix, then stroll along the boardwalk to Bar Beach for a morning dip. No rush, just you, the waves, and the salty breeze.
Seaside Bliss – Park yourself at Mitchies or Pambula River Mouth and soak up those far-out blue waters.
Lunch at Sunny’s – This place is effortlessly cool, with local produce and a laid-back charm that’s impossible to resist. Check their hours via their Instagram page.
Pambula Wandering – Cruise through Pambula’s boutiques, where you’ll find local gems and treats worth bringing home. Swing by Wild Rye for a cheeky afternoon pastry.
Burgers & Brews at Dulcie’s – This vintage cottage-turned-bar is where the good times roll. Grab a burger, a beer, and soak up the good vibes—by the fire in winter, under the stars in summer. You can also bring your pooch!
Day 3: Road-Trippin’ & Hidden Coastal Gems
Morning Brew & Tathra Escape – Grab a Sunny’s coffee, jump in the car, and cruise to Tathra. Take a scenic wander down to the wharf, let the ocean air clear your mind, and soak up the laid-back energy.
Pub Lunch with a View – The Tathra Hotel is an Aussie classic, where cold beers meet sweeping ocean views. Settle in, feast, and take your time.
Afternoon Float – Swing by Bar Beach for an afternoon dip (or float if the tide is making it’s way out!), because, let’s be real—you can never have too much saltwater.
Italian Feels at Bar Monti – Pizza, pasta, and good wine—it’s simple, it’s delicious, and it’s exactly what you need
Day 4: The Great Escape – Bermagui & Tilba
Morning Bakery Run – Pastries from Honor Bread (Bermagui), because good bread is non-negotiable.
Bermagui Adventures – Take a splash in the famous Blue Pool, stroll the beach, and soak up the easy, breezy coastal energy.
Lunch in Tilba – A scenic drive, quirky shops, and the kind of small-town charm that makes you want to stay forever. Stock up on Tilba cheese for the road.
Sunset & Sips Back Home – Lounge on your treehouse deck with an aperitif in hand, watching the sun dip below the horizon.
Dinner at Bar Superette – Think natural wines, divine share plates, and a dash of retro cool. It’s intimate, vibey, and the perfect way to wrap up your last night.
Day 5: Easy Mornings & Farewell Feels
Slow Start & Coffee Rituals – One last Fleetwood coffee before reality calls.
Final Dip – The Pambula River Mouth awaits—crystal-clear waters, peaceful vibes, and the perfect way to say goodbye.
One Last Stroll – Walk the Pamboola Wetlands or do one last lap of the boardwalk to soak it all in.
Check Out & Float On – You’ll leave refreshed, sun-kissed, and already dreaming of your next visit.
